Good morning fellers

I'm confused about what role Boras is playing for Bubba. Is he "Boras" not actually negotiating directly with the Royals, but rather only advising Bubba and his family on what and how to deal with the club directly?

yes, that's all he can do if Bubba still has Nebraska as an option.

 

[huskers1217]

so, Boras is not and "can not" talk directly to KC, correct?

 

[huskers1217]

What I know about the rules concerning agents, which is very little, that seems to be the case. Appears to be a loophole, but were talking about the NCAA here where the backdoor is always open

 

[huskers1217]

that is one hell of a job then..you get 10-15% or whatever agents get of 7 mill for basically doing nothing.

I found this, dated from 2006, but it leaves plenty of room for interpretation

Compliance Office 10/06
NCAA Rules Governing Agents and Amateurism
A student-athlete shall lose his or her amateur status and shall not be eligible for
intercollegiate competition in a particular sport if:
1.) The student-athlete or family member negotiates signs or enters into any written
or oral agreement with an agent for representation at that time or in the future.
2.) The student-athlete or family member accepts or receives any extra benefits from
an agent or anyone who wishes to represent the student-athlete.
3.) The student-athlete signs a contract or commitment of any kind to play
professional athletics, regardless of its legal enforceability.
4.) The student-athlete competes with a professional sports team or competes as a
professional in an individual sport and receives any compensation for
participation.
5.) The student-athlete receives, directly or indirectly, a salary, reimbursement of
expenses or any other form of financial assistance from a professional sports
organization based upon athletics skill or participation, except as permitted by
NCAA rules and regulations.
6.) The student-athlete uses his or her athletic skills for pay or promise of pay.
7.) The student-athlete shall be ineligible if he or she (or his or her relatives or
friends) accepts transportation or other benefits from any person who represents
any student-athlete in the marketing of his or her athletics ability. The receipt
of such expenses constitutes compensation based on athletics skill and is an extra
benefit not available to the student body in general.
